I've never...

I've never been eulogized.

I've never stopped my heart by overdosing.

I've never made bail.

I've never had relatives come visit me in jail.

I've never been arrested for theft.

I've never had the police looking for me.

I've never stolen anything to get money for drugs.

I've never been so desperate that I'd break the law.

I've never hurt my family with bad decisions based on addiction.

I've never had friends say they were done with me because I'm always high.

I've never let friends down by choosing drugs over them.

I've never lied to my kids or my boss because of drug use.

I've never craved drugs so bad that I've not taken care of my daily responsibilities.

I've never asked around for where I could get drugs.

I've never wanted more powerful drugs in order to keep me higher longer.

I've never hurt myself or damaged property because I was high.

I've never been embarrassed about something I did when I was high.

I never tried to fit in or zone out by doing drugs.

I've never looked for my second hit.

I've never tried drugs for the first time. Ever.

No marijuana, no meth, no heroin, no unprescribed narcotics, no tobacco. Nothing. Nada.

I hope you join me in "Neverland."
